My name is Mrs. Detwiler, and I have been teaching in the Hollidaysburg Area Senior High for several years. I graduated from Mount Aloyisus College with a bachelor's degree in Accounting and a minor in English. I decided that teaching was my true passion, so I then earned my bachelor's in secondary education/English. I am currently completing my master's degree at Wilkes University.

In addition to teaching, I am also an author. I write women's contemporary fiction. I also am a huge animal lover; I am a bit obsessed with my mastiff Henry.

In the classroom, I believe that every book has value and that the most important thing a student can learn is how to write well. In my classroom, we focus on these two concepts as we explore classic literature, modern literature, and everything in between.
